Kerri got me started reading Segullah a while ago. It's a lds women's literary magazine (and spinoff blog) that has a lot of thought provoking posts and good discussion afterward. A few weeks ago there was a post of an interview with a featured artist, Leslie Graff. I liked her artwork and when I read that she did 'studio nights' in her ward, I wished that she lived closer. (She lives in the New England area.)
Turns out, she is visiting Utah and is going to do a studio night here this Thursday! I am so excited to go and have no problem going by myself. However, I thought I'd throw this out there for anyone else that might be interested in joining me.
Here's the link to her interview (I like the first tree picture a lot):

Here's the info on the studio night:

I don't think it matters if you're an artist or not. It sounds like she just loves teaching women a fun way to be creative.
(It's true that I've done some oil painting in the past and some other art stuff, but I believe she uses acrylics. I'm looking forward to trying a whole different style than what I've done before.)
Would you maybe want to join me? Why not?!?!
